Asphalt 7 question

[prateekj1993]

I have tried many games on windows phone till date and now I wanted to try asphalt 7. But I have heard that it takes about 4gb of space and that would mean that I would have to remove most of the apps from my Lumia 620. So, can anybody tell me how much space do I exactly need to install and play that game (including the 512mb setup files).

I've just installed the trial version of Asphalt 7 and Lumia Storage Check is reporting that the game is taking up 719 MB of storage. This more than likely includes the initial 512 MB download as well. However, I found an interesting thread on the Microsoft Community forum discussing this very same topic and one guy reckons that WP rules dictate that available storage must be four times bigger than the actual installer package for the game or app to be installable. So in the case of Asphalt 7 you will initially need 2 GB of available storage to be able to install the game even though it will only require 719 MB once it's installed.

2gb available free space on the phone required. That won't be used up though.

Well needed and used area aren't same things.
Asphalt 7 Heat at my L920 is about 788 mb.

I think that Asphalt 7 was about 1.1 GB in size when I finished and deleted it.
